well that was a week

so last Wednesday I started coughing in the middle of the night

and it's been down hill since then

today is the first day I have felt halfway like myself

still super sick, but actually sitting up on the couch, and that is a big improvement

so this has been my only view lately

I have never missed this much work for being sick

but after two days last week of being constantly asked by teenagers why I was so cranky

after I had just spent five minutes having a coughing attack

I knew that I needed to take a few days off

and having the Dr. write me out for the rest of the week

well, I just went with it

so now it is time for me to do report cards, and I'm pretty thankful they are all online nowadays

here's to my humidifier, chicken noodle soup, and orange slices

oh, and a husband who has been on major nurse duty the past few days
